Hyaluronic Acid Fillers For Buttock Augmentation 

Although many people opt for hyaluronic acid dermal fillers to volumize, contour, and sculpt their buttocks, some still hesitate to undergo the procedure due to a lack of knowledge about the benefits and effectiveness of HA fillers. However, a recent observational study on the long-term safety and efficacy of hyaluronic acid fillers for gluteal volume correction reaffirms that HA fillers (HYAcorp MLF1/2) have no severe after-effects and exhibit high patient satisfaction.

According to a market report, in 2019, Mexico held a key share in the Hylauronic acid dermal filler market in Latin America. The high safety, efficacy, and long-lasting results adds to the popularity of HA fillers in buttock augmentation procedures. 

HYACorp HA Dermal Fillers – An Overview 

Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in the body that plays a crucial role in tissue regeneration. As it is biodegradable, the HA fillers require a technology, which can delay the degradation of HA gel so that the fillers work efficiently and provide a long-lasting result. 

The HYAcorp dermal fillers feature ATT (Advanced Thixotropic Technology) that makes HA gel less viscous under the pressure and safely delays the degradation process. The ATT process doesn’t alter the physicochemical characteristics and allows the gel to be injected easily. 

Here are some features that make HYACorp suitable for buttock augmentation procedures- 

  • Contour, sculpt, and volumize body parts
  • Used in a minimally invasive, nonsurgical procedure
  • Biphasic dermal fillers
  • Non-animal origin, BDDE Free
  • Highly safe and effective (CE mark approved)
  • Quick results with reliable corrections up to 100% 
  • Minimum to low downtime

So, if you are thinking of going for a minimally invasive procedure for butt augmentation, HYAcorp dermal fillers are a great option.
